Hi guys : Im using js2dk 1.4 with eclipse and Fedora and it works fine. I tried to download jdk1.5 and installed it using the shell script provided. I think it worked, but unfortunately when running eclipse with the -vm argument pointing to jdk1.5, I get the following error
Error occured during initialization of VM :
java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object
1) Any ideas on why this is a problem, or about a simple way to install
java 1.5 ?
2) I tried starting eclipse using java 1.4 which works, and simply pointing to java 1.5 in the source. However, although eclipse doesnt complain , it doesnt "update" the compiler when i do this - i.e. there are still errors flagged when I use java 1.5 features (i.e. such as generalizations).
Any step by step instructions for installation of the jdk on fedora 5 would be much appreiciated...
Please help. I have a highly object oriented app which has a lot of general data types, so Im despearte to start working in java 5 so I can quit having to cast everything the old way !
